Effy Sayre has always believed in fairy tales. She s had no choice. Since childhood she s been haunted by visions of the Fairy King. She s found solace only in the pages of Angharad --author Emrys Myrddin s beloved epic about a mortal girl who falls in love with the Fairy King and then destroys him. Effy s tattered dog-eared copy is all that s keeping her afloat at Llyr s prestigious architecture college. So when Myrddin s family announces a contest to redesign the late author s estate Effy feels certain this is her destiny. But Hiraeth Manor is an impossible task: a musty decrepit house on the brink of crumbling into a hungry sea. And when Effy arrives someone else has already made a temporary home there. Preston Héloury a stodgy young literature scholar is studying Myrddin s papers and is determined to prove her favorite author is a fraud. As the two rivals piece together clues about the reclusive author s legacy dark forces both mortal and magical conspire against them--and the truth may bring them both to ruin. Part historical fantasy part rivals-to-lovers romance part Gothic mystery and all haunting dreamlike atmosphere Ava Reid s powerful YA debut is also an unflinching indictment of institutions that sacrifice young girls on the altar of men s genius and a gripping read that will stay with you long after its final page. Achingly atmospheric and beautifully sharp. --Rory Power New York Times bestselling author of Wilder Girls
